They certainly would not be confused with a poor man’s cabin! They’re like a yacht on wheels! I have a tiny house, If I redecorated with a million dollar budget, it would look that good – but, I still wouldn’t have a place to paint, sew, or quilt!

Hi Texasjune,
I also would not be able to live in something that small, but I thought the idea was brilliant, no need to tow a small boat as well, if you are going somewhere for a couple of days.
I think it may be more of a guy thing. 😀

I’d like to see how the Sealander takes a set of rapids…
The Cyclops is stunning but for my money the Opera House camper is a great looking little camper that would gets people talking and ensure lots of visitors invading your privacy…

Hi Kymbo,
Now that would be something to see the little van in rapids. 😀
My favourites is “The Ecco” pictures 3 and 4 in the picture gallery, also the georgeous little van that is made to be towed by a push bike picture 10 in the gallery. 🙂

Hi Lady Marilyn,
As you know here even in OZ we have people that sell up everything including their homes and take to the road in whatever they decide to buy, “Aussies Grey Nomads”, others will keep their homes as a base only, there are a lot of people that would love to just travel around whatever country they happen to live in when they retire. Of course not everyone would have millions to throw away. 🙂

Love the idea of the amphibious caravan, & wonder why nobody thought of it before. But, nearly 3 million bucks for a motor home? If I had that kind of mazuma, I wouldn’t need a motor home; I’d be staying in hotels all the time.

Hi travelrat,
It is a great idea the van come boat.
Staying in Hotels is my cup of tea, I’m not the camping type, but hubby loves driving around, it is his dream to become a “Grey Nomad” when he retires, travel around OZ for a few months, then come home and start again.
If we were lucky enough to have 3 Millions dollars there would be a fight. 😆

There are a fair few getting around in Australia, some are done up really nice, it is surprising what some are like inside, even with a kitchen and bed there is still room to move around, and I believe they are pretty good on fuel as well.
There are some good pictures on this web page, there are even pictures of the Kombies with the pop up tops.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_Westfalia_Campers

They almost seem extraterrestrial, they seem so absurd to me. The first picture is quite beautiful with strong and almost unreal colours that real fit the theme. My favourite picture is the second one with the camper cruising around.

I like the pop-up camper van that looks like the Sydney Opera house – it’s so attractive… It seems like a modern version of my grandparents’ old Volkswagen camper bus. They had so much fun driving their little home-away-from-home about the country, all those years ago. I could see Tim & myself using the this one. 🙂

Hi Barbara,
The pop – up camper shape is very nice, there seems to be a bit of style to it I think.
So many people have enjoyed themselves driving around and looking at whatever they like on their travels, and from some of our friends who are doing it at the moment, say they have met some very nice people as well. 😀

Hi souldipper,
Hmm, best not to send this I would say, I wouldn’t send the picture gallery either, but saying that, they most likely got what they thought would be OK for them, and if they enjoy themselves it was a good buy. 🙂

Amazingly beautiful inside aren’t they? I love the handcrafted woodwork of the Sydney Opera house. But I too wonder if I had $2.9 million would I spend it on a teeny little camper. I think I’d buy the yacht.
